Indie Film Cinema Community Guidelines
EFFECTIVE DATE: July, 2026
The safety of our creators, viewers, and partners is our highest priority. We look to each of
you to help us protect this unique and vibrant community. It’s important you understand our
Community Guidelines, and the role they play in our shared responsibility to keep Indie Film
Cinema safe. Take the time to carefully read the policy below. You can also check out this
page for a full list of our guidelines.
Explicit content meant to be sexually gratifying is not allowed on Indie Film Cinema.
Posting pornography may result in content removal or channel termination. Videos
containing fetish content will be removed or age-restricted. In most cases, violent, graphic,
or humiliating fetishes are not allowed in Indie Film Cinema. In some cases, we may make
exceptions for content with educational, documentary, scientific, or artistic context,
including content that is in the public’s interest.
If you find content that violates this policy, report it. Instructions for reporting violations of
our Community Guidelines are available here. If you’ve found a few videos or comments
that you would like to report, you can report the channel.
Sexually explicit content featuring minors and content that sexually exploits minors is not
allowed on Indie Film Cinema. We report content containing child sexual abuse imagery to
the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, who work with global law
enforcement agencies.

What happens if content violates this policy
If your content violates this policy, we will remove the content and send you an email to let
you know. If we can’t verify that a link you post is safe, we may remove the link. Note that
violative URLs posted within the video itself or in the video’s metadata may result in the
video being removed.
If this is your first time violating our Community Guidelines, you’ll likely get a warning with
no penalty to your channel. However, if the same policy is violated within a 30 day window,
the warning may not expire and your channel may be given a strike. If you violate a different
policy you will get another warning.
If you get 2 strikes within 30 days, your channel may be terminated.
We may terminate your channel or account for repeated violations of the Community
Guidelines or Terms of Service. We may also terminate your channel or account after a
single case of severe abuse, or when the channel is dedicated to a policy violation. We may
prevent repeat offenders in the future.
If your content contains pornography, we may terminate your channel.
